Fausto Caporali took his diploma in Organ and Organ Composition in 1981 at the “Giuseppe Verdi” Conservatory in Milan where he studied with Gianfranco Spinelli, and in 1983 he attained the title of Maestro of Gregorian Chant at the Pontificio Istituto Ambrosiano di Musica Sacra. He received his post-graduate education participating in courses with H. Vogel (Baroque organ music of N. Germany), A. Isoir (French music of the Baroque period), E. Kooiman (French music), L. Rogg (Bach, Mozart, improvisation), M. C. Alain (Bach, J. Alain), D. Roth (modern French symphonizing) and G. Parodi (German Romanticism). He studied privately with D. Roth in Paris and attended N. Hakim’s summer courses on improvisation in Haarlem. At the end of his academic studies, he applied himself to the study of Messiaen. He has published “L’Improvvisazione Organistica. Un metodo teorico e pratico” (“Organ Improvisation. A theoretical and practical method”), “Propedeutica all’improvvisazione organistica” (“Introduction to organ improvisation”), “L’accompagnamento del canto liturgico”(“Accompaniement of liturgical songs”), “Il dialogo perpetuo.
